Mu Mingtang was stunned and asked in surprise, “You trust him this much?”
“Of course,” Mother Zhao said without even a mont’s hesitation, “If the King of Qiyang can’t win, it will be useless for us to hide no matter where we try to escape to. We might as well die together as a family and accompany each other on the road to Nirvana.”
Even though Xie Xuanchen’s title was changed into Prince An from the King of Qiyang, the new way of addressing His Highness was only mainly used by the people in the capital. Excluding the citizens who lived in the capital, most of the public still used his previous title whenever he was ntioned.
Mu Mingtang did not expect that an ordinary citizen would have such great trust in Xie Xuanchen. It wasn’t only the Zhao family as Mu Mingtang also found that the other houses in Qingshui Town did not lock their doors. In other words, the other people in the town stayed put as well.
Everyone trusted Xie Xuanchen so much. Because Xie Xuanchen was here, even if the enemy was on the other side of the river, there was no need to escape.
Hearing Mu Mingtang’s strange question, Mother Zhao wondered, “Why did Your Highness ask that question? Do you not believe in the King of Qiyang?”
Mu Mingtang was startled before she laughed, “Of course I believe in him too.”
She believed in her young hero wholeheartedly, so much so that she was willing to commit the rest of her life to him and follow him to the end of the world.
While talking, the sound of horse hooves was heard outside, soon followed by a series of greetings. When Mother Zhao heard this, she panicked so much that she imdiately tugged her daughter to stand up. Then, she bowed to the Princess and said, “His Highness is back; us humble ones will take our leave.”
As soon as Mother Zhao finished speaking, she quickly took her daughter and ran out. Young Lady Zhao was dragged by her mother and stumbled as the two frantically paced out of the room. Upon exiting, she looked up inadvertently and saw a man donned in armour, walking towards the main room. At a glance, she only rembered that the man was extrely tall and surprisingly good-looking.
This was the most handso man that Young Lady Zhao had ever seen. Unexpectedly, was this man the rumoured ‘King of Qiyang’?
The place where Xie Xuanchen was stationed was not far from Qinghe Town. He could go back and forth between these two places within a quarter of an hour on horseback. This was a location that he had chosen specially. After arranging the chores and duties to everyone in the military team, he ca back to see Mu Mingtang imdiately.
Xie Xuanchen finally understood why the n who had gotten married in the military camp went ho as soon as they had the ti. He was hovering between the military camp and his wife, but he didn’t feel tired handling both matters. Rather, it almost seed like he was rather happy about it.
When Xie Xuanchen ca back, the courtyard was busy again. The people in Qinghe Town were afraid of the palace servants whereas they were afraid of Xie Xuanchen. As soon as Xie Xuanchen ca back, the servants swapped the cool tea with a fresh batch and left without a lingering glance.
